Yield 6 to 8 servings.

Note from Vicky Pearl: I shared this recipe as a response to parents coming to me, anxious to get their children to consume more protein. Some children flat out didn’t like chicken; for some it was an issue of texture; and for yet others, chicken bones were off-putting. I chose to go with cutlets for the latter reason, eliminating the need to deal with bones. White meat has less texture than dark meat, eliminating that problem as well. Potato chips, as everyone knows, tend to be a favorite among young diners, so in they went, as did a mild but pleasing mayonnaise-based marinade. The combination was successful, and some parents, once their kids tasted this recipe, have even gone on to add this coating to bone-in chicken.
